The appropriately names Hawking Technology Hi-Power USB WiFi Dish that connects over USB will allow you to grab WiFi signal well probally from the neighbor down the block. Im sure however that anything that probably gets in between you and the dish will be baked to a crisp.

Seriously though, the antenna extends wireless connection distances by up to 300% with a 8dBi gain. It also features a built-in LED signal strength indicators to provide network signal information to pinpoint the strongest signal available within your area.

Available for $70.00.
